As the last of the summer jam stock dwindles, and root vegetables take up residence in our crispers, we begin to appreciate freshness wherever we can find it. It is a rare thing to find one single food (let alone a vegetable) that does the nutritional work of all of its counterparts combined -- and is built to thrive through the winter. Enter kale: this gorgeous green is lively and toothsome with an addictive peppery bite. Steamed, sauteed or dressed up raw in a salad, kale is delicious when prepared with a little finesse.

Even the most glorious greens are best paired with a little dose of decadence. No need to trick the serial carnivores into eating their veggies; these delectable kale recipes will convert even the biggest superfood-phobic. Here are 9 of our favorite ways to turn this nutritional powerhouse into a delight.

I like these sorts of things: pancakes, pulled pork, watching breakfast at tiffany's while its raining, going to four hour brunches with four hour laugh riots, smelling cucumbers, road tripping, cooking you breakfast, anything involving cheese or potatoes, waking up to the smell of bacon and doing yoga.

my latest obsession, especially considering I've never even tasted it before hearing about it on Food52..Its been Kale kale & more kale at home, tempura, Kale Paneer, Kale Sauteed with steamed lentils South indian Style... I seem to be buying kale as often as milk & bread!
